Doug Stanton Ministries International (DSMI) was founded in 1995 by Doug and Karen Stanton—international evangelists and revival leaders with decades of ministry across Australia, Fiji, Brazil, the Philippines, and the United States.

Doug's life was radically changed in 1978 through a powerful conversion and miraculous healing. Since then, Doug and Karen have planted churches, built ministry centers, and led life-transforming revival meetings that have impacted thousands. Their U.S.-based ministry began with an extended revival in Minnesota that drew people from nearly 300 churches and sparked a wave of regional renewal.

In the years that followed, DSMI established the DSMI Ministry Center in Crystal, MN—transforming the historic Crystal Ballrooms into a hub for revival, training, and international ministry. The Stantons also launched a media ministry and hosted leaders and speakers from around the world.

Following their time in Minnesota, the Stantons relocated to Alabama, where they purchased and developed the DSMI Ranch—a 200-acre operating cattle ranch—designed to support ministry, provide space for gatherings, and continue their mission in a fresh way.

Now, the Stantons have returned to Minnesota with their new location in Princeton, MN. With a renewed vision and deep passion for revival, they’ve established a long-term base there, holding regular meetings and once again igniting a move of God throughout the region.
